Corporate Role Play

WHAT IS CORPORATE ROLE PLAY and how can a bunch of actors help your company?

WE TAKE AN INITIAL BRIEF FROM YOU, CHOOSE A GROUP OF SUITABLE AND DIVERSE PROFESSIONAL ACTORS AND COMMUNICATION SPECIALISTS, REHEARSE and then, after the performance, it’s over to your “spect-actors”

Think of the actors as crash test dummies

They act out a scene designed specifically for your business

They get it horribly wrong

Time and time again they get it wrong and need to be assisted by the “spect-actors” (your staff members)

The “spect-actors” are encouraged to make suggestions on how to improve the interactions

Why Corporate Role Play Works

Corporate Role Play is highly interactive, entertaining and energising, with little chalk and talk and lots of get up and do.
